Hello chaps.
I am planning to DIY fit four new downlights in place of a bog standard pendant to the bedroom.
The cables currently up there are 1.5mm2 t & e.
Do I run the new downlights in 1.5mm or 1mm cable ? These are led 6w downlights.
There is insulation above and the installation instructions say that blanket insulation can be placed above. It is Rockwall insulation. However, what about junction boxes etc ? My understanding is that electrical wiring can sit either under or over insulation but not to be wedged in between ?
Many thanks.
